Toss the dice: A review of diceless sci-fi RPG Bounty Hunter

June 13, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I’ve run quite a few scenes with the Bounty Hunter system, and they’ve worked very well. It’s especially strong over Discord, as the lack of dice and barely any mathematics means all your attention can be on the players and the game.

Die by d100 and the bronze sword: A review of the Jackals fantasy RPG

May 30, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Jackals is a bronze age fantasy, and it’s a gritty high fantasy at that. It’s sorcery and sandals in the style of the Epic of Gilgamesh, and it gets the thumbs up from this ancient one.
